1955 Map of Starlake

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The sprawling lake networks of the Northwoods define this 1955 survey of the Wisconsin-Michigan border. Extensive public lands, including the Ottawa National Forest and Highland State Forest, cover much of the region, interspersed with hundreds of named water bodies like Cisco Lake and Big Lake. The settlement of Starlake serves as a local hub near the southern edge, while the Chicago and North Western rail line cuts through the lake-dotted terrain to the east. This era shows a landscape managed for both timber and burgeoning recreation, with numerous points of interest for genealogists and local historians, such as the Land O' Lakes Cem and the Monahan Lookout Tower. The intricate shorelines of West Bay Lake and East Bay Lake reflect the complex glacial geography that has shaped the border region's development.
